Dynamic Mechanical Compression of Chondrocytes for Tissue Engineering: A Critical Review
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2017 Articular cartilage functions to transmit and translate loads. In a classical structure–function relationship, the tissue resides in a dynamic mechanical environment that drives the formation of a highly organized tissue architecture suited to its ...

Crackling Dynamics in the Mechanical Response of Knitted Fabrics [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 Crackling noise, which occurs in a wide range of situations, is characterized by discrete events of various sizes, often correlated in the form of avalanches. We report experimental evidence that the mechanical response of a knitted fabric displays such broadly distributed events both in the force signal and in the deformation field, with statistics ...

Mechanical response of cardiovascular stents under vascular dynamic bending [PDF]
BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2016 Currently, the effect of vascular dynamic bending (VDB) has not been fully considered when studying cardiovascular stents' long-term mechanical properties, as the previous studies about stent's mechanical properties mostly focus on the effect of vascular pulsation (VP).

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Statistical fluid mechanics: Dynamics equations and linear response theory
Physics of Fluids, 2023 The statistical nature of discrete fluid molecules with random thermal motion so far has not been considered in mainstream fluid mechanics based on Navier–Stokes equations, wherein fluids have been treated as a continuum breaking into many macroscopically infinitely small (but microscopically large enough) mass elements with their motion only ...

Dynamic Responses of the Planetary Gear Mechanism Considering Dynamic Wear Effects
Lubricants, 2023 Gear wear is unavoidable and results in vibrations and decreased performance in a planetary gear system. In this work, the wear phenomenon of the gear teeth surface and the dynamic responses of the planetary gear mechanism are investigated through a computational methodology.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Loading-Induced Heat-Shock Response in Bovine Intervertebral Disc Organ Culture. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Mechanical loading has been shown to affect cell viability and matrix maintenance in the intervertebral disc (IVD) but there is no investigation on how cells survive mechanical stress and whether the IVD cells perceive mechanical loading as stress and ...
